Be kind Quote by Al Gore
“I never like the question about letter grades, but I think Trump is failing. I think that every day there's another set of tweets and another set of controversies, and nothing seems to be getting done that's any good. And there seems to be kind of a policy paralysis in Washington. Even the appointments he's supposed to make as a new president, so I focus most of all on climate, and so my opinion of his time as president is certainly influenced by my opinion of the job he's done on climate. He's tried to move the country in the wrong direction.”

And Republicans on The Hill do want him to succeed, obviously, and they're deferring to him…” quote by William Kristol](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/a29/william-kristol-9091_believe_i-think-that-s-what-s-one-of-the-things_441583.jpg)
